Nas - It Ain't Hard to Tell (Illmatic XX Remix) lyrics

[Intro:] I-i-i-i-t-i-it ain't hard to tell Nas, Nas, Nas is the king of discoing [Verse 1] It ain't hard to tell, I excel then prevail The mic is contacted, I attract clientele My mic check is life or d**h, breathing a sniper's breath I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps Deep like the Shining, sparkle like a diamond Sneak a Uzi on the island in my army jacket lining Hit the Earth like a comet – invasion! Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazing Cause in my physical, I can express through song Delete stress like Motrin, then extend strong I drink Moet with Medusa, give her shotguns in hell From the spliff that I lift and inhale, it ain't hard to tell [Hook:] Nas, Nas, Nas is the king of discoing Nas, Nas, Nas is the king of discoing Nas, Nas, Nas is the king of discoing It ain't hard to tell [Verse 2] The buddha monk's in your trunk, turn the ba** up Not stories by Aesop, place your loot up, parties I shoot up Nas, I an*lyze, drop a j**el, inhale from the L School a fool well, you feel it like Braille, it ain't hard to tell I kick a sk** like Shaquille holds a pill Vocabulary spills I'm Ill plus Matic I freak beats, slam it like Iron Sheik Jam like a Tec with correct techniques So an*lyze me, surprise me, but can't magnetize me Scannin' while you're plannin' ways to sabotage me I leave 'em froze like her-on in your nose Nas'll rock well, it ain't hard to tell [Hook:] [Verse 3] This rhythmatic explosion is what your frame of mind has chosen I'll leave your brain stimulated, n***as is frozen Speak with criminal slang, begin like a violin End like Leviathan, it's deep, well let me try again Wisdom be leaking out my grapefruit, troop I dominate break loops, giving mics men-e-strual cycles Street's disciple, I rock beats that's mega trifle And groove even smoother than moves by Villanova You're still a soldier, I'm like Sly Stone in Cobra Packing like a Rasta in the weed spot, vocals'll squeeze Glocks MC's eavesdrop though they need not to sneak My poetry's deep, I never fail Nas's raps should be locked in a cell, it ain't hard to tell [Hook:]
